H&S version .21 less smoke?

The 21 version is suppose to help decrease low boost fueling to reduce smoke with cold air intakes. Did anyone notice any difference? I'm going on a trip today so I'll post back any notices.

It's been mentioned that .21 has decreased the smoke considerably. Post back as I'm on the fence in regards to the update. It is so time consuming....I get impatient....lol

Yes it reduced a lot of the smoke on take off. Where if you punched it it would leave a big cloud. Mine is more of a decent haze now. Once it sees boost it's normal fueling though.

Wow. It reduced about 75% of smoke when I just step on it.

When I updated I also installed the transmission tuning. And I'm impressed. I did the relearn process and now my tranny makes better firm shifts. And I didn't even think it could shift better.

Did it improve the turbo lag?

I just did the .21 update also and I must say "Bravo" to H&S! Much better than even the .20 in regards to throttle response. It was dark, but I could still see head lights behind be when I jumped on the throttle. I see my city mpg increasing....

Now if they could get the "romp" taken care of, it would be a near perfect tune!

Let me try this.....

Attention H&S, you are doing a great job tuning the 6.7, could you please attend to the "romp" when light throttle is applied and then release I would appreciate it!!

Yeah I think the transmission shifts fine with .21. Apparently the next update will have adjustable low boost fueling from what I understand. I've been running .21 since they released it and I have no complaints at all with it.
